New York City Council · Oct 26, 2026 · starts 1:17:40 · 56 sec

Brewer asks whether public schools help with programs for students and raises housing needs. Eusebio says DOP had classrooms in NEON sites and is rebuilding that relationship, and says DOP works with DHS on housing as a stabilizing factor.

Gale A. Brewer

We almost need housing, in my opinion, for some young people.

Gale A. Brewer

I wish we could be looking at that.

Gale A. Brewer

Go ahead.

Gale A. Brewer

I just want to hear from you what you need.

Sharon Goodwin

One of the things I think, that's what I need is to make sure we reassess what we have first.

Sharon Goodwin

I got nine months under my belt, so I'm looking at employment.

Sharon Goodwin

We're looking at mental health, behavioral health.

Sharon Goodwin

We're looking at housing.

Sharon Goodwin

These are the main components that we need at probation.

Sharon Goodwin

So we are definitely looking at it.

Sharon Goodwin

Like I said, I've been convening with different organizations to look at capacity, which is very important.

Sharon Goodwin

I need to know what capacity is.

Sharon Goodwin

Are there programs we are missing?

Sharon Goodwin

Right?

Sharon Goodwin

There's a lot of resources in New York City, and some of them go overlooked.

Sharon Goodwin

So I need to know what that is.

Sharon Goodwin

So we're mapping at this point.
